Fog

[iamc24]

The new fog weather is far too dense and intense for how long it lasts. Fog density needs to be reduced regardless but the reduction should be based on if and by how much fog duration is reduced. If the current duration stays the same, fog density needs to be reduced to about the same as Flathill. Higher densities are only tolerable for so long before it just becomes annoying over being a challenge. I know fog is also meant to be the spawn condition for the new enemy, but the rewards just don't make it worth trying to explore the current fog over going afk to just wait out the annoyance of the fog.

Fog + bad soup sickness has genuinely ruined my groups appetite for this game. Shame it was fun whilst it lasted!

I was looking forward to finally opening the dubious box, but alas, it's just trash I don't know how to use.
The only thing that made me happy was the carbuncle pizza and cake.

Wow, melodramatic much?

If you can't post anything useful, let alone insulting or manipulative, then don't post at all.

If you clearly can't handle the annoyance and frustration that comes with Early Access development, you shouldn't have bothered playing it yet.

Agreed. The fog makes me nauseous and is far too bright. Could be darker, less dense, and maybe last a bit less time.

Playing right now and still getting the fog. The brightness is the worst part of it, thought if it was toned back on density as well that would be great. I assume it's supposed to be leaking in from Flat Hill, so it would make sense to only be partially as dense.

[MechWarden]

After the recent hotfix, the density is much better. Still can't see very much, but that's the point. At least now I don't feel like I'm almost blind.

The brightness is still a bit harsh. It could use a bit more toning down.

Gave you an award because you aren't gonna get much else for being some weird early access gatekeeper. These forums are exactly designed to express your thoughts and frustrations.

Apologies for hurting your feelings with my internet pixels.

Enjoy your weekend bb ❣️

I did enjoy this game a lot. I have played the parts that are currently implemented and am waiting for the ice cream to melt so I can make a cake. I look forward to the next update.
In the meantime, all I can say about the fog is that I think it is too foggy, more so than Flat hill.

[John]

The ability to suck it up would be great.

[Chester]

I like it, it adds a randomized horror element to the game. I think Storm Spirit brought up a good point.

I honestly think Fogs just too bright white needs to be more grey tinted as hurts eyes after abit with every thing glowing like it is

You didn't hurt my feelings, to made me chuckle from the irony. And gave me Steam points to boot!

You might want to re-read what I said. I never said that people can't express their thoughts or frustrations. I expect rants, I expect ideas that are walls of text, but most importantly I expect people to post the how's and why's of what went wrong or what they think would be neat to add, because they love the game and want it to be better, and not act like some spoiled brat that had their fun ruined by an inconvenience.

If you think advising people that they might not want to be here, because the frustrating game is currently changing, has bugs, and is unfinished as gatekeeping, well... I have some bad news for you. That's called stating the facts. It is better for them (and for us) to stay out of EA and for them to wait for it to be finished.

People talk about the fog but what about how bad the radiation is? We just need settings, this is a sandbox game after all. We should be able to change how dense the fog is or even disable it altogether or in my case keep it turned on forever. I beaten the game a few times now so I know what I'm doing but new players will have a bad time

[MechWarden]

The Radiation event can be bad, especially if you already got yourself nuked by stuff before hand and at risk of serious radiation poisoning, but it can be weathered with a hazmat suit and likely a dose of iodine pills or a lead vest for extra safety (yes, both stack). By that point, everyone should have access to hazmat suits (and ones that can respawn), so it shouldn't be too bad of an issue.

(currently, the spore event seems near superficial, getting a lung infection for awhile and that's it if unprotected)

The whole point of the fog is to reduce visibility; It isn't just to mimic the feel of Flathill. Given how we have a monster dedicated to that event, it would be a hard sell to just cut out the fog event altogether. I already suggested toning down the brightness a bit so it is easier on the eyes, but having it be even less dense might eat into the effect it is supposed to do.

That said, maybe not having such events happening in every sector might be better. That way players have the option of doing things elsewhere if such an event is too much for them. While I haven't had much of an issue navigating in fog, other players wind up being hold up in their base, waiting (and waiting for over 30 minutes!) because of fog, and that's not fun at all. This could also mean that more events could cycle around, allowing people the option to both hunt for an event or avoid it.

damn they didn't lie
that fog do be dense as hell

i played a little bit post-update and finally got it and got a migraine in like 10 seconds
